I Have Countless Legendary Swords! Chapter 412 - Return to the Netherworld

Chapter 412: 412 Return to the Netherworld

“Why? Are you afraid that no one will protect the Northern Wilderness Region after Zhou Xuanji leaves?”
Daoya Old Man asked him with a ridiculing smile. The others smiled condescendingly as well.
Although the tribulation executives looked powerful, they are quite useless as a matter of fact.
They even suspected that Daoseeker and the man in the woven rush raincoat were hiding some secrets.
Daoseeker ignored everyone but stared at Zhou Xuanji and said, “You defeated so many Heavenly Law Puppets. Their originals may already have a grudge against you. If you were to ascend, you would be in great danger. All those enemies might just be waiting for you to ascend!”
The group heard him and fell into deep contemplation.
The higher the cultivation, the more people cared about their faces.
Although Zhou Xuanji was protecting the Northern Wilderness humans, he really embarrassed all those ancestors.
If they were in their position, they would not feel good about it, but not to the point of having a grudge.
“Are they that petty?” The little black snake hissed.
“We must not let down our guard,” Daoseeker sighed.
He had encountered countless powerful cultivators, and he knew who among them were petty-minded.
Zhou Xuanji waved his hand and said, “I will be dead if I stay too. It’s worth the risk to ascend.”
Daoseeker wanted to speak further, but seeing Zhou Xuanji’s determination, he gave up.
However, Zhou Xuanji remembered his warning.
The things that he could imagine, those high and lofty powerhouses above must have thought about it as well.
After Daoseeker left, Zhou Xuanji took Jiang Xue’s hands and said, “Follow me.”
He promised to bring Jiang Xue along wherever he went.
It was not safe to leave Jiang Xue in the Northern Wilderness Region also.
Zhou Xiaoxuan opened her eyes and cried out, “Wait, wait, wait… Dad, what about me?”
“Get lost to one side,” Zhou Xuanji said unpleasantly.
Zhou Xiaoxuan was so angry that she stomped her foot. She took the little black snake’s tail and charged into the nearby forest to vent her anger by whipping the snake around wildly.
“I will not be following you in case I become your burden. I will stay behind to take care of Emperor Sword Court for you,” Jiang Xue shook her head and said. She felt warmth in her heart.
No matter how much time had passed, he always thought about her first.
She felt regretful and reluctant too.
She tried her best to catch up to Zhou Xuanji these ten years, but the duration was still too short.
“I can get Magistrate Cui to give you some Great Spirit Pills to improve your cultivation.”
The lady before him was his closest family, and no one could replace her. No one knew how long it would take for him to come back after his ascension. Of course, he wanted to bring her along.
Jiang Xue pinched his face and smiled, “I will surely become your burden if I follow you. Wait until I progress further in my cultivation, then I will ascend on my own. At that time, the Upper Realm will not know our relationship, causing you less trouble.”
Zhou Xuanji threw her a stare and snorted, “I won’t allow you to ascend alone. Either you leave with me or stay back in Skyfall and wait for me to watch you ascend personally.”
Jiang Xue smiled sweetly, and the others chose to leave them alone.
Daoya Old Man rested his hands at his back and sighed, “Oh the love between them.”
He reminisced about the dusk that year, where he had a lady beside him too.
It was a pity that she had already returned to dust.
Zhou Xuanji spends three days to settle matters to prepare for his ascension.
Tonight, he left while the sky was still dark.
After a while, he came to a wilderness where there’s no one around. He activated the Nine Hell Flame Extinction and entered the passageway to the netherworld.
He quickly disappeared into the darkness.
After his departure, Xuan Daoya suddenly appeared at the edge of the black hole, looking downwards.
His face was grave and stern, without the arrogant smile he had before.
“Zhou Xuanji, who are you? With the Fate that I gave you, you should not have become so overwhelmingly talented. And where did you get those swords? It seems that you are not a simple chess piece,” he mumbled to himself. His sparkling eyes gave an aura that was cold and scheming.
After that, he leaped into the passageway to the netherworld too.
After passing through countless darkness, Zhou Xuanji felt that the world was rotating.
When he opened his eyes again, he had already touched the ground.
After he became a Great Emperor, he could already resist the pressure of traversing between the human world and the netherworld.
The netherworld was dim and lifeless as usual—everywhere seemed horrifying.
He immediately flew toward the Magistrate’s Palace.
Along the way, he encountered many Impermanences, and they all looked at him with admiration.
So many people had died in the Northern Wilderness Region. Through these dead people, the Impermanences got to know Zhou Xuanji’s prowess and achievements.
He was unprecedently powerful, and this was not an exaggeration.
Half an hour later.
Zhou Xuanji reached the Magistrate’s Palace, and no one stopped him along the way. After entering the palace, he met Magistrate Cui, who was busy.
At this moment, two Impermanence escorted six ghosts inside, and they were recounting all the good and evil deeds they had done in their lives.
Once Zhou Xuanji entered, everyone turned around to look at him.
The six ghosts got excited immediately.
“Sword Emperor!”
“Is the Sword Emperor here to save us?”
“Don’t talk rubbish. Who do you think we are, that the Sword Emperor will personally come to the netherworld to save us?”
“Could he be dead too?”
“Impossible! The Sword Emperor is invincible. He will not die!”
The conversation was humorous to Zhou Xuanji. He did not expect to encounter six fans here.
He passed by the Impernanences and came up to the Magistrate with a smile. “Magistrate Cui, it’s been a long time.”
The Magistrate replied with a smile, “It’s not very long. But your power growth made me feel like we have parted for a very, very long time.”
The six ghosts’ eyes were wide-opened.
Awesome!
The Sword Emperor knew Magistrate Cui. Looking at their conversation, they seemed more than just acquaintances.
The Sword Emperor had influence over both the mortal realm and the netherworld?
Zhou Xuanji walked aside and said, “You settle your things first. I have a favor to ask you.”
Magistrate Cui nodded while the six ghosts grew in admiration.
He must have great influence to get Magistrate Cui’s help!
They no longer felt fear but were exhilarated.
With the Sword Emperor around, they did not dare to embarrass themselves. Each of them stood with pride.
Finally, they were brought away by the two Impermanences, still looking proud.
Zhou Xuanji made clear his purpose of visitation.
He wanted to ascend from other mortal realms.
As for getting in the Upper Realm straightaway, there was no way he would want that.
Because the ascension tribulation was between the Upper Realm and the human world, he did not want to miss the opportunity to grow his power.
Magistrate Cui put down his pen and said intently, “Recently, there have been many who wanted to enter the Northern Wilderness Region through the netherworld. It is too conspicuous to send you out like this. Why don’t I let you reincarnate? Don’t you have an energy technique that allows you to be reborn and quickly recover your cultivation?”
Zhou Xuanji asked with squinting eyes, “How did you know?”
At the same time, he was shocked in his heart.
So many powerful cultivators wanted to enter the nether realms but to no avail. This meant that Magistrate Cui was extraordinarily powerful!
Magistrate Cui waved his right hand, and Xian Xianghua appeared in the palace.
“Why are you here?” Zhou Xuanji asked astonishedly with eyes opened wide.
Xian Xianghua said with curled lips, “I want to ascend too. We had the same thought.”
The Celestial Devil Rebirth Technique could preserve the original bloodline and even purify it. Each time one was reborn, he or she would become more talented.
The original physical body will turn into ashes and be destroyed without any traces. This energy technique was extremely domineering.
Zhou Xuanji had already reached the 4th Level, so he had three opportunities to be reborn.
“If not for her relationship with you, I would have already sent her into the 18th level of hell,” Magistrate said with a chuckle. His expectation for Zhou Xuanji grew more and more, so he did this favor for Zhou Xuanji.
Zhou Xuanji showed his gratitude first before chatting a little longer with Xian Xianghua.
The two decided to ascend from different mortal realms. Too many people had a grudge against Zhou Xuanji, so he did not want to drag her into this.
Xian Xianghua understood that she would only be a burden if she followed him.
An hour later.
Under the guidance of Magistrate Cui, they came to the bridge of reincarnation.
